Just when I thought that going to a new school could be a fresh start for me, I realise I couldn’t have been more wrong. Not only has my almost-boyfriend dubbed me “The Queen of Freaks,” but it turns out I’m way more powerful than anyone could have ever imagined. That would be all well and good if everything was as it should have been at the Winterwood Academy but what most people don’t know is that there’s danger inside the walls of the Academy far worse than anything we might face outside the Wardings. Students are dying, and other than my super hot sidekick, I’m the only one who knows that there is a serial killer on the loose. When my newfound powers attract the attention of one of the most dangerous witches the Winterwood Academy has ever seen, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make it out alive.

Winterwood Academy Book 2: Buried

Luckily for me, the lights around the academy never seemed to go out. The oil lamps that lit the courtyard and the side pathways always burned bright no matter what time of night it was. They chased away the shadows and made me feel slightly less uneasy about sneaking out in the middle of the night.


I had just slipped onto the path that led between the girls’ dorm and the main building when the first drop of rain bounced off my forehead, causing me to jump in surprise.


When I glanced upwards, more droplets began to dance down around me, and I closed my eyes for a moment, allowing them to wash away the stress of the day. No doubt there would be more soon to come.


With a deep breath and an even heavier sigh, I continued onwards.


Although the moon wasn’t full anymore and rainclouds were beginning to crowd in, the path was still well lit, and I could easily make out the faces of the God and Goddess statues as I passed.
